Elizabeth Alker shares a selection of music from genre-defying artists whose work drawns on and reinvents classical tradition. This week we’ll hear part of a reimagined 1930’s silent film score from Haiku Salut and Meg Morley, new shimmering sounds from American composer Tyondai Braxton, and recordings from an allotment in Nottingham courtesy of Ben McElroy. Plus we dive into the new work of Yorkshire-based sound artist Jez Riley French, who shares some insights into his approach to recording and the listening experience. Produced by Kit Callin A Reduced Listening production for BBC Radio 3
